When Steve Hartman launched his Everybody in the World has a Story project for CBS he made the debatable claim that there is no member of the human race, anywhere on the globe, who is not newsworthy. After a recent encounter with a fabulist in the Australian Outback--yes, he did have a story; no, it was not true--Hartman has moderated his claim. Now the limit of his ambition is to prove this theory: "If you ask people about the things that matter most in their lives you will discover we really are all just the same." Hartman's latest tale in Bali of "the honeymoon and the headache" was supposed to illustrate his point.
He found a husband who is hornier than his wife--not very impressive.
Hartman's efforts usually have more oomph. Try the Handbag Millionairess of Chengdu…or the Mud Hut Labor Activist of Oman…or the Cold War Muscle Man of Latvia…or the Blind Patriarch of Rewari in northern India.
